GLASS BODY
Thursday 09-25 March 2006; updated by Laura Cinti - 11 March 2006

 

Glass Body :: Reflecting on Becoming Transparent is Anna Furse's performance installation that explores how onscreen spectacles of our own inner bodies are received in our imagination via contemporary digital and computer pictures.  Focusing on imaging technologies associated with contemporary obstetrics, it reflects on the experience of In Vitro Fertilisation as a particular way of seeing life itself take shape both inside and outside our bodies via the application of the microscope, camera, computer and, most importantly, ultrasound imaging.
